Looks nice - but as Tom says - it seems a little strange not to mention THE thing that makes it unique? And me (of all people) is no fan of those bonnet vents... D.

Briefly had a message popup, saying that I'd been disconnected earlier. But that's been about it. Have been watching Netflix on the PS3 and thankfully, that's separate from PSN. D.

Welcome! :) However, when you say dealership - do you mean Bury Motors?? Pick the car up from them and NEVER darken their doors again. Honestly - there is zero customer interest there. I've had an ongoing issue with Renault UK and them for months. Not only shoddy work (losing my undertray...

Looks an ok car tbh - just a shame they have those issues with the engine. Will be interesting to see if your clean-up and new caps help keep it running free of build-up :) D.

Yep - they are uber-feeble and fail regularly. I reckon I must be on my fourth set by now? :) D.

Certainly different. The wheels grow on me with each glance at the pics. Nice colour combo with the car, imo. D.

Bloody hell! :eek: D.

Certainly worth trying - they over fuel when cold quite a lot. Mine regularly pops on the overrun when cold. I bet getting it up to temp like Paul suggests would help a lot.

Hah! Point well made :)

That's the bit that scares me Dan. I've been flexing the door panel when pushing back and my brain is thinking I'm doing it wrong, to simply slide a bit of plastic back. If you slide it back, how do you apply the pressure with the door open? Frustrated.com ;)

Top work! Love these cars - the look, their poise, the rarity. And that colour just works brilliantly. D.

Put Eibachs on mine years back. The literature said it would lower the car by 30mm and I'm glad I bought them. A nice and subtle drop overall. The 182 with the Cup package looks like a 4x4. The standard 182 look even worse. Way too high. D.

Out of interest, how dirty is/are the tail-pipes on your car? My exhaust tips on the 182 started getting really black and sooted up. This went hand in hand with the MPGs going south and I got it chucked into the local Renault dealership for a full diagnostic. They came back with a faulty...

Not really my thing - I wouldn't do it. The tights thing makes me lol. A bloke I knew about 10 years ago put them on his Punto and from a distance, I thought he'd spent a fair amount on smoked lenses. Got close up and...... oh dear. D.

Epic! I do miss the days of the Vee Meets! :) D.

Windows 7 Home Edition for me. Reformatted to Windows 8 and couldn't get on with it. Went back to 7. Windows 8.1 came out, reformatted to that. Still couldn't get on with it (though admittedly it was a better). Went back to 7. I need to reformat again in the near future and will certainly be...

Different! Actually, they should be good for looking for things at night - not as good as red, mind. Easier for your eyes to adjust to that colour than standard, stark light in a darkened area. D.

There's a lot of speculation and plain guesswork in this - and as such, it's difficult to give accurate advice. First off however - get it serviced!!! I know it's probably money you would rather spend elsewhere - but putting aside a wedge to get my car serviced would be a much higher priority...

LOVE the wheels. Dare I ask roughly what they cost you? Or is that wince-inducing to bring that price back up?! How do you rate the F1's? They were a great tyre on the Evo for me, but even with just daily driving, I was surprised at how quickly they wore down. D.

Cheers guys. Just so I know I'm doing things right, do I NOT take off the side-strips in order to make access to the bullets easier then? It is the bullets alone that I want to exchange. Ideally, I wanted to remove both the strips and the bullets and wipe the crap from behind while I was...

Definitely keep the spoiler - it's hardly WRC spec, is it? And while you've got the dangerous thoughts of removing bits - DO NOT remove the mudflaps. They are there for a reason! :cool: D.

Potentially, could this be down to nearly 10 years worth of build-up from road crap, rain and muck that has ran over the strips themselves? The threads I've read on here simply state a slide-back motion is required - yet I can't get them to move. Well, the passenger side anyway, as that's the...

George (aka G 172) is definitely the man to contact. Really helpful with queries and pricing. The best bet is to let him know what you want from your brakes (like track work, daily driving, etc) and some idea of budget. Definitely one of this forums' most dependable traders! D.

Just as a quick guess - has your BIOS defaulted back to IDE/legacy mode for the SATA emulation? Make sure its on AHCI. D.

I don't upgrade my phones quickly at all. I had my 3GS for over four years before switching to the 5 that I have now. At the earliest, I reckon I'd be looking towards the 7. Skip a generation - the technical improvements over the previous one aren't always 'that'. As a device, the size, shape...

When you say no HDMI - do you mean without the cable, or does it actually not come with HDMI output? D.

Think he might have been following me in this morning....? Stalker..... :P D.

I have a mega soft-spot for Porkers in general. I dread to think how much those carbon bits were! :) D.

Looks neatly done. Like the gauge in the driver's side central vent. :) D.

Christopher would no doubt give you some good pointers. And he's in spitting distance from me..... D.
